Yes, I am very happy.

Dr. Noel Rivas and his staff were very professional and spoke excellent English. I was very impressed with his work and pleased with my new porcelain crowns. His office has state-of-the art dental equipment. They are very caring and make sure you feel comfortable during your procedure. I plan to return to his office for a checkup on my next visit to Puerto Vallarta. Dr. Rivas' office is conveniently located and I was able to walk from our resor to his office. Thank you so much.

Also highly recommend Dr. Rivas at PV Smiles. Enjoyed our chats (his English was excellent and I don't speak Spanish) and the pain free procedures. Very much appreciated the diligence he showed in getting the impressions right and the pride he takes in his work. My two gold crowns feel great. Good value for money that makes the trip worthwhile.
